For all the BMX stars out there: Air Jordan 1 Hi OG NRG Nigel Sylvester<\/h2>\n

We finally see a long time AJ 1 fan collab for his own release, culminating into the Air Jordan 1 Hi OG NRG Nigel Sylvester<\/strong>. Sylvester, the famous shoe’s namesake, has likely been eyeing this collab for quite some time now.<\/p>\n

He’s been a Nike athlete since 2005. For better than a decade, Sylvester has been responsible for helping the brand’s 6.0 branch of action sportswear flourish. His BMX career has led to a reputation for being maybe the only pro rider to still pedal around in Air Jordan 1’s<\/strong><\/a>.<\/p>\n

Sylvester has been doing that for as long as he can remember, gathering all sorts of scuffs on shoes you’d be spending a small fortune on. Just like the skaters and riders in the 80s subculture scene, Sylvester is just in love with these shoes.<\/p>\n

As such, it’s about time the man was awarded an opportunity to put out his own vision of this model. To say the very least, it’s a memorable aesthetic.<\/p>\n

The color scheme here centers around Sail White with contrasting notes of Black and Varsity Red. The leather construction here is “pre-distressed” to look like it’s been beaten up and put through the rough treatment of a BMX star. For an additional piece of detail, we also get mini-swoosh stitching along the toe area.<\/p>\n

The distressed or “pre-distressed” notion of sneaker design is hardly new. Premium brands have been wading around in this genre for a while. Still, the fact that this shoe was put together by a skater makes it seem a bit more sincere. It\u2019s also worth keeping in mind that each pair is individually hand distressed, so there\u2019s an organic sense of variety.<\/p>\n
